Feast On Preferred Purveyor

A certification program that recognizes businesses committed to sourcing Ontario grown and made food and drink.  Supporting our local economy and Ontario’s farmers is important; especially for the food service industry. It builds our local food identity, it puts dollars back into our communities and it limits our environmental impact. For more information talk to your Territory Manager or visit the Feast On website.

Cage Free Eggs

As a Canadian family owned and operated foodservice distributor, Flanagan Foodservice is committed to meeting the evolving demands of our diverse customer base in the restaurant and foodservice industry. This involves sourcing and listing products according to customer specifications. Many of our restaurant customers have committed to adapting their procurement practices to align with sourcing eggs from hens raised in a 100 percent cage free environment. We will work right alongside of them to meet these goals.

 

As a member of the Canadian food industry, we want to ensure the animal products we purchase on behalf of our customers meet stringent food safety standards and are raised in a sustainable and humane manner. Animal welfare is important to us. Flanagan Foodservice is also committed to working collaboratively with other participants in our supply chain to pursue the objective of purchasing only 100 percent cage-free eggs by the end of 2025.
